Pros

Some free games Stock Options Great coworkers Snacks Arcade Machines Opportunities for fun events

Cons

Political Senior Management. Content ideas often gate-kept unless coming from management directly. Male-dominated management on the creative side, with little to no female representation leading to a tense environment. Pay is far below industry standard for the amount of output, necessary experience, and hours worked. You will work weekends and with tight deadlines. Very little incentive for proper compensation or recognition. Content is becoming stagnant and dictated by algorithms that are two years behind. Hesitant to innovate on new strategies or foresight in conjunction with other known platforms. Leadership often seems to contradict each other on strategy, leading to frustration in the office. Slow to promote. Toxic fandom and outside perspective.

- no transparency - no security, people fired for weak reasons and not replaced, which makes remaining workers get burnt out over - constant union punishments - management doesn't seem to understand that bad treatment and overloading makes people quit
